# Terminology Bindings for Nutrition Diagnosis

## Nutrition Diagnosis Value Sets

These following bindings ensure that the FHIR resources effectively capture nutrition diagnosis information using standardized SNOMED CT terminology, promoting interoperability and accurate data exchange across healthcare systems.

The following value sets can be used as alternative bindings to represent nutrition diagnosis data. The “Nutrition Diagnosis Grouping” value set, stewarded by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and available via the Value Set Authority Center (VSAC) at the National Library of Medicine (NLM), contains 167 concepts and can be accessed [here](https://vsac.nlm.nih.gov/valueset/2.16.840.1.113762.1.4.1095.85/expansion). Another value set, the “Nutrition Focused Physical Findings Grouping,” also stewarded by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, includes 372 concepts and is accessible [here](https://vsac.nlm.nih.gov/valueset/2.16.840.1.113762.1.4.1095.49/expansion). These value sets enable precise and standardized documentation of nutrition-related diagnoses and physical findings.
